1964-D Franklin Silver Half Dollar Fantasy Now Available

Mine arrived Tuesday, have briefly looked at it, but looks to be a 'high
grade' piece, and without doubt, the bell lines are fuller than full. I look
forward to really looking at it, seeing if there are any signs of the host
coin, and may consider sending it off to ANACS.

Another job well done by Mr. Carr!

Much of his argument for legitimacy is close to the line of thought
that the elongated coin people utilize; and if you strike a fantasy
coin over a real legitimate coin of the realm, what is the actual loss
to the state or sovereign???

A Star Trek quatloo or a Harry Potter galleon would be a "fantasy".
A coin that says "United States" and "Half Dollar", and bears the same
images as a coin issued by the United States, is not.

Replying to Dan's post, but directed to everyone. Dan is very well
respected. He's submitted a number of designs for the Statehood
Quarter program; NY and RI (I believe) having been approved and
circulating now.

I'm sure Dan has checked with the Mint to see if his fantasy coin was
legal. If not, I'm quite sure he wouldn't have produced it.

He also designed the Maine quarter.

As far as respect goes....I lost most of the respect I had for him
when he got involved with that World Trade Center "tribute" coin.

It seems to me that it is a clear violation of the Hobby Protecction Act

" (b) Coins and other numismatic items
The manufacture in the United States, or the importation into the
United States, for introduction into or distribution in commerce of
any imitation numismatic item which is not plainly and permanently
marked "copy", is unlawful and is an unfair or deceptive act or
practice in commerce under the Federal Trade Commission Act [15
U.S.C. 41 et seq.]."

The Federal Trade Commiossopon seems to in charge of that.
